University management has made concessions to assist students by reducing the amount payable prior to registration, to a minimum of 15 per cent.

“However, for many of our students, raising even this minimum fee is near impossible. We have launched this fundraising initiative to ensure that no academically sound student is left behind. We want to do all we can to raise funds and enable financially disadvantaged students to register by the closing date, Friday, 6 March,” said management.

The management said they are appealing to corporates, philanthropic foundations, trusts, alumni, staff and the public at large to contribute to this worthy cause.
